All Left Brained People- This Is For YOU!!!
Is anyone as meticulous as I am? Orderly, view everything as black or white? Value Democracy, but think with a Socialist attitude? I'm taking a survey on how people think and act.

Politics don't belong here. Period. This is a place where you come and relax (sort of) in the company of a bunch of guys with nothing better to do than share their passion for games, and discussions like these create rifts between users, besides creating flame wars. Tl; dr: Political discussions should stay on YouTube and GTFO of DRLFF.

Awww, I thought this was going to be a clever thread about right-handed people.
Not to offend anyone but I think socialism is stupid. But, please, no politics.

But anyways this isn't entirely political, so it's not entirely doomed, but it is veering in that direction now, so it probably will go into politics, and fail astronomically. Anyways I think of myself as left brained, but in a reasonable balance. I am very left eyed and right handed though. I wonder if that's detrimental to development of hand-eye coordination?

Re: All Left Brained People- This Is For YOU!!!
I don't view things as black and white, but I have to state things in black and white contrast. A resource reset wouldn't hurt. I am very sloppy, but it usually refines itself in the worst time possible ( after the conversation ) .

The left side of brain is actually slightly larger than my right. It makes my eyes uneven if you look really closely.

Humans are stupid. We either need to unite somehow and move on, or we'll end up nuking one another in petty religious wars.

I'll give you that, our curiosity, and the fear for the unknown, we have created the most manipulative, and 'proven' way to explain the universe even though current day technology, and trends debunk many of the morals, restrictions, and what not. We really need to give up religion, the unknown won't hurt us until we make it aggressive, in which case, WE NEED TO BE LESS INTRUSIVE.

I don't see why people don't like your opinion... it seems very logical, you believe in conglomerates that work, not dysfunctional purities.

I don't see why people don't like your opinion... it seems very logical, you believe in conglomerates that work, not dysfunctional purities. wow, positive response! but seriously, I think an autonomous non-dictatorship communist state with a set but flexible class system is the best choice. thats why I can't talk about politics without peoples heads caving in. (class system of : civilians, workers, artists, Emergency *anythings*, science, and military. all choices dictated by science and the military, voted on by civilians. I actually have a complex system but this is neither the time nor the place... I'm just rambling) Point is, My views are based on taking bits of everything that I think would work. unfortunately like everyone else, I have bias.

Re: All Left Brained People- This Is For YOU!!!
Nothing wrong with political discussion - but if you want to go ahead and troll/flame the thread I'll be happy to introduce you to the banned forum.
I think a lot of folks get all wound up in debate because they don't understand one simple concept: People don't know what's best for them.
It's not possible to know everything and I think if we left the country up to pure, 100% democratic voting on all issues - we would immediately see the taxes being lowered or dropped entirely, while simultaneously complaints about healthcare, education, and even road maintenance would increase.
People are too dumb to see the correlation there.
I think the best country in the world would be despotic/fascist, but with a *nice* guy at the helm instead of a jerk.

Re: All Left Brained People- This Is For YOU!!!
Yeah, that's the problem. Almost all forms of government really just depend on a figurehead to do things. The person put at the helm could be stupid (see... for lack of a better example, George Bush.), crazy (Henry the Eighth, was it?), or bent on world domination (Hitler, anyone?).
Mainly I'd say you want a fool-proof government. Some might say democracy is the answer, but that goes for everyone that votes. Hopefully most crazy people/people bent on world domination are in the loony bin, but some people are stupid, some people don't read before they vote, and some people just don't vote at all.
I think America's current government is sufficient, but could benefit from some wise decisions.

The person put at the helm could be stupid (see... for lack of a better example, George Bush.), crazy (Henry the Eighth, was it?), or bent on world domination (Hitler, anyone?). Which is why some people say that communism would work, with no government, complete equality for all, etc. Except that most countries get stuck after the bit with the people seizing power and stabilising/rearranging everything. The bit that involves said people giving up said power. Yeah.
